revival!
Qing Sheng just reminded me that I have a blog on MSN Messenger just now. Hence, I decided to blog a short post to update on my life now. Currently, I am serving NS as a promotions clerk at RSAF HQ, Air Manpower Deparment (AMD). It is situated at MINDEF where all the high-flyers are. I literally see stars and crabs everywhere I go. Life has been pretty good there and I learnt some new skills by myself such as Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Access, office politics and Situation Awareness (SA). Haha.
On to the topic of my university and scholarship applications, I am sad to say I think that I have been officially rejected from all my scholarship applications! I would probably try again next year or settled studying local at NTU (aerospace engineering course) or NUS (chemical engineering course). Friends and relatives have been pressing me to try for medicine, which I did by stupidly putting it as my second choice and got ignored altogether LOL. My senior gave me this analogy about how I can view my A level results as arcade coupons that one can exchange for a gift. Imagine one have 100 coupons he questioned why would one exchange only 20 coupons for a gift and throw away the rest. However, after much thought, I feel that I would rather exchange 20 coupons for something that I feel that I truly like then to use up all 100 for something that is more branded and expensive but not something that I yearn for. I feel like I am at crossroads now. Admittedly, I have not really decided on what my future career path would be yet. However, one thing is for sure, I would like to take up science related courses in university.
I shall end this post by posting a video of my current favourite song here for the very few readers of this dilapidated blog. It is James Blunt again with his sappy voice and emotional take on “Carry You Home”. It is his third single for the album “All The Lost Souls”. Hopefully, this song would be released as a new song next week on 987FM so I can call in to dedicate it on radio! :P
Following up is the youtube user turned star Marie Digby with the first single from her debut album “Torn”. It is a simple yet sweet song titled “Say It Again”.
James Blunt - Carry You Home
Marie Digby - Say It Again
Have a great week ahead everyone! :)
